    An ‘i’ and a ’y’ would make speculation risky.
    As those letters are in the club shop, they might mean ‘remove sneaky kleptomaniacs’.
    They are an environmental consultancy / sustainability solutions business. I have always said front of shirt is the wrong asset for them…. They are B2B. They should be stadium partners and then build a big activation around the carbon footprint of the valley.

    Front of shirt doesn’t make any sense 
    That clears that up then . 

     I still have no idea what they do. 
    You do know that you’re on the internet when you read and comment on here don’t you?

    I really like all the green travelling clobber.
    Agreed. Can’t believe how expensive it is though.

    Let's take an item from the training range as an example:

    The "Players Training Midlayer" it is priced at £58. (Or £48.33 plus VAT)
    The equivalent junior item is priced at £55. But VAT is zero-rated on children's clothing.
    So the club is charging £6.67 more for a kid's top than the adult one!
    All the items seem to be priced up in the same way.  It is outrageous that a 6-7 year old's top should cost 14% than an adult top net of VAT.

    When I get a moment I will email the fan engagement people and CAST about this issue.

    Interesting spot and you are right to be outraged. 

    Will it just be argued it’s supply and demand though? Do we sell more kids stuff than adults?

    *Off subject, apologies. 

    Am I imagining that a local company make (made ?) old CAFC kits ? I think I saw them on Twitter awhile ago. TIA.

    Thanks Rothko.

    The middle one is the one I'm after. 
    Anyone on here had experience with the company ?

    I bought the middle 'red' one from them no issues at all, I've never actually worn it and would happily sell it if anyone wanted it. It's a medium.

    It's a very decent copy but I'd rather have the white one. I got the red one before they decided to do it in white

    @Miserableoldgit there was a thread about them before which I think had lots of members' feedback on it:

    I waited for mine for about 6 to 8 weeks, but they keep you in the loop, the shirt was better than I thought, but you’ve got to size up by at least one size.

    Yes but I’m not sad enough to search for sponsors web sites . I’ll leave that to you

    The two‑year agreement will see the TodayTix logo featured on the back of the men’s and women’s first team shirts.

    WTF
    I reckon there will be "experiences" sold on our site and todaytix for people using it who are in London as tourists and want to see football. Maybe they'll chuck in the lounges etc. Hospitality etc. Could work really well to boost attendances.

    If it brings in more money than previous sponsors in the past, then they call it whatever they like

    We seemed to sell quite a few tickets to tourists last season, a definite benefit of being a London club in the Championship, with spare seats and a fairly modern stadium.

    So is that the official end of the UoG sponsorship?

    I guess was always going to happen with them defecting to Palarse
